Very good repairs that actually last.” — Troy M. “Six stars! Seven! Brought in my late model Buick SUV that another shop had diagnosed (for a healthy fee) as having a serious transmission fluid leak, a complex and expensive repair. Lodi Transmissions found that stray motor oil from a recent service had coated the underside of the car, including the transmission case, making it resemble a transmission fluid leak--which it wasn't. They cleaned it up and didn't even charge me anything for the service. It doesn't get better than that.” — R.W.R. “I brought my 2001 Toyota 4Runner in for a transmission rebuild because I read the good reviews online. They gave me a good price (I had received other quotes) and they finished in a week. Here's the best part- when I came to pick it up the stereo wasn't working (it was a blown fuse due to jump start) and I asked them about it and it was 5pm closing time but they spent the next 45 minutes working on it until it was fixed - and it wasn't just one guy sticking around to help but a whole crew. This place is solid and classy. And I would recommend them to anyone.” — Tom C. “We were stranded and they were quick to help us get back on the road again safely for the last leg of our trip. So thankful for their honest assessment and kindness!!” — Jessica G. “Had these guys build a transmission for me and the turnaround time was awesome, thank you Lodi transmission Chris and crew.” — Denny C.

Because transmission issues are notorious for escalating quickly, it’s always best to get to the shop at the first sign of trouble. This way, you’ll have the best chance of resolving the issue before it becomes more expensive to address. At Lodi Transmissions, we provide top-quality transmission repair in the greater Lodi, CA area. We’ll make sure that your vehicle can be trusted to shift smoothly and safely. Here’s a look at four common warning signs of a transmission problem. Strange Noises In many cases one of the earliest signs of transmission trouble is unusual noises. If you notice grinding, whining, or clunking sounds when shifting gears, there’s a good chance that you have a transmission issue. These noises could indicate low transmission fluid, worn-out gears, or other internal problems. Ignoring these sounds may lead to further damage to the transmission system. Slipping Gears If you’re calmly driving along and your car suddenly jumps out of gear, you’ve got a clear sign of trouble. Gear slippage may occur due to contaminants in transmission fluid that are obstructing the fluid’s flow. Consequently, there isn’t enough fluid pressure to keep the vehicle reliably in gear. Fluid Leaks Transmission fluid is essential for lubricating moving parts and ensuring smooth gear shifts. If you notice reddish-colored fluid leaking under your car, it could indicate a transmission fluid leak. Low transmission fluid levels can lead to overheating and friction within the transmission, causing severe damage. Regularly check your transmission fluid levels and address any leaks immediately to avoid costly repairs. Burning Smell A burning smell could indicate overheating transmission fluid. Ignoring this smell may lead to serious transmission problems. If you detect a burning odor while driving, pull over safely and have your vehicle inspected by an experienced mechanic.

Safety is a top priority for every responsible driver, and one crucial aspect of vehicle safety is the proper functioning of the braking system. As soon as you suspect a brake issue is developing, it’s important to bring it to the mechanic’s attention. At Lodi Transmissions, we provide expert brake repair in the greater Lodi, CA area. Here are five common symptoms of brake trouble. Squeaking or Grinding Noises One of the most obvious signs of brake trouble is the presence of unusual sounds when applying the brakes. If you hear a high-pitched squeaking or a grinding noise, it could indicate worn-out brake pads. Brake pads have a built-in wear indicator that produces sounds to alert you that it's time for a replacement. Ignoring these sounds can lead to further damage to the brake rotor, resulting in more extensive and costly repairs. Soft or Spongy Brake Pedal A brake pedal that feels soft or spongy when pressed is a symptom of a brake fluid issue. The sponginess could be due to air in the brake lines, which compromises the efficiency of the braking system. Also, a soft brake pedal may arise as a result of a brake fluid leak. If your car is leaking brake fluid, you’ve got a serious safety hazard and shouldn’t drive it. Rather, you should have a tow truck bring it to the shop. Vibrations If you notice vibrations or pulsations when applying the brakes, it could be a sign of unevenly worn brake rotors. Getting your brake rotors inspected and resurfaced or replaced as needed will restore smoother braking. Dashboard Warning Light If your ABS warning light comes on, it’s important to alert the mechanic. This light can get triggered by issues such as faulty wheel speed sensors and low brake fluid. Veering If your car veers to one side when you hit the brakes, then you may be dealing with a caliper that has seized up due to corrosion. This creates a serious safety hazard and places you and other drivers at high risk of an accident.
